AutoIt script going nuts


Recommended Posts

Finaly I have made my first script. And if I dont compile it to an .exe it is working fine.

But if I am compiling it to an .exe, to run silently from my UA dvd, it's going into a loop.

My taskbalk is overrun with only auto it icon's and eveything is freezing.

Can somebody help this AutoIt newbie to get his script running?

Or is it a smart idee to install the whole program and than run only the script itself?

But how to run the script itself, I mean what switches to use.

At a guess, with little info that you supplied.

Perhaps when you compile your script, it has a name similar to the executable that you are launching ? It could be executing itself, over and over ?

To prevent this, if I have an installer called "setup program.exe", I will call the compiled au3 "_setup program.exe". The underscore is unique, to the filename read. Using underscores, instead of spaces, can assist with spaces in filenames that maybe the root cause of this issue.

Okee that indeed fixed the main problem of the script going nuts.

But now I have an problem installing the script. Iam using this code in run once

REG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120\_setup.exe" /f

But I am getting the error mesage

Cant find C:\Program ??????

Is something wrong with my code???
